A First Rate Man-Of-War Driving on a Reef of Rocks, and Foundering in A THOUGHT #161,180 Artistic direction RAMM Creative Programme 2012-16 Collaborating with contemporary artists Below: The courtyard at RAMM “ Creative practice and cultural heritage come together in Exeter’s RAMM. Over the years the museum has worked with many artists, but recent support from partners, including Arts Council England, has enabled RAMM to collaborate with some of the country’s leading creative figures. Artists have animated the museum’s amazing collections, provided new ways of looking at our heritage, and they have encouraged dialogue and learning in the city’s Home to a Million Thoughts.” Councillor Rosie Denham Lead for Economy & Culture, Exeter City Council Councillor Rosie Denham Below: Bottom: RAMM’s Queen Street entrance Maria Lalic, Lead and Ten Colours, 2010 to 2011, consists of lead and the ten artists’ colours derived from its compounds Introduction RAMM has been at the heart of Exeter’s cultural life since 1868. For many years the museum has organised exhibitions of contemporary art and worked with artists. Over recent years RAMM has developed its creative and contemporary programme as part of its overall vision as ‘Home to a Million Thoughts’. The development project (2007-11) gave RAMM the opportunity to design artwork into the fabric of the building – a new venture for us. The success of these commissions – five pieces of art by three artists Maria Lalic, Michelle McKinney and Nicky Hirst; and the digital piece Ghostwriter by Blast Theory, which ran throughout 2012 – foreshadowed the current contemporary art programme. With Arts Council England’s Major Partner Museum funding, RAMM has strengthened its programme and introduced a more innovative approach: A combination of originated content and toured-in exhibitions, new collaborations with artists working on a variety of scalable projects, and additional expertise and advice from creative partners. The strength of RAMM lies in its stories, the collections, people, places and events that are recorded in the museum. Rather than duplicate what other contemporary art spaces do, RAMM endeavours to provide a distinctive offer, encouraging artists and partners to use the vision of ‘Home to a Million Thoughts’ as their springboard for creativity. RAMM’s ambition has been sustained and progressed. Our vision is articulated by the contemporary artists who are part of the museum’s culture. This is a review of the main strands of activity, with an emphasis on recent developments. Additional information can be found in the links at the end of this document. Ghostwriter, Blast Theory 1 Artists responding to the collections Leading contemporary artists have been invited to create responses to RAMM’s encyclopedic collections in a programme called Artist Reflections. Below: Bottom: Mark Anstee working on Polly Morgan talking at the his RAMMyriorama Arts Council Curators Day Artist Reflections RAMM’s vision is Home to a Million Thoughts. As part of the contemporary arts programme, the museum invited artists to reflect and respond to the collections with their own thoughts. The Artist Reflections are intended to stand alone as creative interventions, whilst acting as a research and development process informing RAMM’s longer-term ambitions for commissioning artwork and collaborating with artists. The artists developed responses or interventions – the reflections – inspired by the RAMM collections of one million objects. Initial suggestions arose from discussions between colleagues at Arts Council Collection at Southbank Centre and RAMM as part of a series of activities explored in collaboration with partners. A long-list of names was drawn up in discussion with RAMM’s Contemporary Arts Panel during 2013, in consultation with Arts Council England and the Arts Council Collection. The first artist approached in late 2013 was Polly Morgan, an artist RAMM had long wanted to work with. Artist Reflections in outline: XXFour reflections by different artists – ‘mini-commissions’ that acted as creative interventions - over a period of time during 2014 and throughout 2015. XXThese artists reflected on the four different collection areas (antiquities, art, natural history, world cultures) but this was not a requirement. (i.e. two artists might respond to the same collection area). XXEach artist responded either via a piece of work, if they felt this was achievable within the budget, or via text, lecture, performance or another response that visitors can experience. In the event that the reflection proposed was not a tangible object, RAMM agreed with all artists it would be a piece which could be captured or recorded for future reference and learning. Participating artists: XXPolly Morgan XXMark Anstee XXSonia Boyce and Serena Korda XXRod Dickinson Below: You Are Here, 2014 Polly Morgan RAMM’s creative programming in collaboration with contemporary artists Polly Morgan Based in London, Polly studied with Scottish taxidermist George Jamieson and for more than ten years she has played with taxidermy traditions, creating unsettling sculptures that question an often sentimentalised view of the natural world. Polly’s art has caught the imagination of collectors, curators and audiences around the world. She has exhibited across the UK and in Cyprus, Denmark, Germany, Italy and the United States. Polly was selected to represent the UK in the exhibition Organic Matters: Women to Watch 2015 at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington DC. www.pollymorgan.co.uk The Reflection: You Are Here Polly visited in December 2013 and responded to the natural history collections, creating You Are Here which was exhibited August 2014 to March 2015 at the More in Store Viewpoint. Polly generously donated the work to be accessioned into RAMM’s collections. Polly Morgan was inspired by RAMM’s natural history collections Image © Mark Anstee RAMM’s creative programming in collaboration with contemporary artists Mark Anstee Now based in East Sussex, Mark has exhibited at the John Hansard Gallery, Southampton and Pitzhanger Manor Gallery, London. He was artist-in-residence at the Imperial War Museum North in 2014 with redblueredblue. Commissioned by IWMN, this was a 30-day drawing and multiple projection piece, performed live in the main exhibition halls of the museum to commemorate the start of the First World War. Previous achievements include being Leverhulme Artist-in-Residence at Stonehenge World Heritage Site and Artist-on-Manoeuvres onboard the Royal Navy’s flagship HMS Bulwark. Mark created work for In Flanders Field Museum, Belgium, and completed residencies at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin and Castanheiro de Vento, Portugal. www.markanstee.com The Reflection: RAMMYRIORAMA Mark completed a site visit in September 2014 and responded to RAMM’s world cultures collections. His plans involved a concept poster inspired by key objects from the collections and presented through a modern take on the theatre of a 19th century ‘Myriorama’ – a RAMMYRIORAMA, displayed in the World Cultures galleries from 13 February 2015 to 3 January 2016. “ Working with RAMM on the Artist’s Reflection commission was an absolute pleasure. The brief was clear, but open enough, and the process collaborative, rigorous and professional. I felt very well supported by all members of the RAMM family and I was afforded a great deal of research time, discussion and technical assistance during the whole process. I was surprised by the final work that I produced, which, I believe is an indication of having been tested by new ideas, stimulated by debate and inspired by an extraordinary collection. I’m proud to have made a work for this unique museum.” Mark Anstee Image © Rod Dickinson RAMM’s creative programming in collaboration with contemporary artists Rod Dickinson Rod is based in Bristol where he is a lecturer at the University of the West of England. He has created installations and live events independently and as part of a team, for a variety of organisations including the Hayward Gallery, the Institute of Contemporary Arts, Longside and the Victoria & Albert Museum. Rod’s work is held in public collections including the Arts Council Collection at Southbank Centre. His solo exhibitions have included galleries in Frankfurt, Ljubljana, Vancouver and Washington DC. www.roddickinson.net The Reflection: Outlier Detection The artist’s interest lies in responding to historical events and material culture. Outlier Detection combines live data from http://www. legislation.gov.uk/ with a Victorian police truncheon from RAMM’s collection. The artwork monitors and measures the frequency with which UK legislation is made on an hour-by-hour basis, in real time. This data animates a digital 3D image of the truncheon causing it to break up and disintegrate. It looks for the publication of Statutory Instruments. Despite lacking the same kind of parliamentary scrutiny as primary legislation, Statutory Instruments are becoming increasingly common and now form the bulk of all legislation in the UK. Outlier Detection contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

  • Partnerships: an NMDC Briefing
    Partnerships: an NMDC briefing Museums of all sizes and types regularly work in partnership to deliver collaborative projects with other museums, educational establishments, and heritage and community organisations across the country. Many of these partnerships are based around the loan of objects, including from national museums, but others focus on developing new public programming, sharing skills and expertise, education and learning, and working with communities. Museums continue to adapt the focus and nature of partnership working as a way of managing the impact of cuts to public funding and developing greater resilience. Museums loan thousands of objects to other museums across the UK every year as part of mutually beneficial collaborative projects. In 2012/13, DCMS-sponsored museums lent objects to 2727 venues in the UK (a marked increase from 1530 in 2008/09).i Examples include: Star object loans: National Gallery Masterpiece tour (sponsored by Christie's) opened with Manet's The Execution of Maximillian at The Beaney in Canterbury. It was seen by nearly 21,000 people before moving on to Barnard Castle and Coventry. Until 2016, one major National Gallery painting will tour each year. Loans of local significance: the loan of the Lindisfarne Gospels from the British Library to Durham Cathedral in 2012 generated £8.3m in economic benefit and was visited by 100,000 peopleii; Long-term loans to provide content for a museum or historic house: apart from one locomotive, the entire collection of locomotives and stock on display at STEAM in Swindon is a long-term loan from the National Railway Museum. Larger museums and specialist collections tour complete exhibitions to venues around the country.

  • NEWSLETTER National Trust Issue 107 Winter 2018 £1 (Free to Members) from the Chairman John James a Happy New Year to You All
    The Friends of Osterley Park In support of the NEWSLETTER National Trust Issue 107 Winter 2018 £1 (free to members) from the Chairman John James A Happy New Year to you all. We finished our programme for 2017 with a Christmas Lunch in the Brewhouse. It was a lovely occasion, with the café providing an excellent meal. The year also ended well for the House and Park, as they won the Running Awards 2018 for Best 10K Run in Greater London. The property have also concluded the staff and volunteer survey, with 170 completing it, an increase on last year. An innovation has been a trial allowing dogs into the gardens and to the stable café (a limited number at a time). The trial is running from 6th November 2017 to 23rd February 2018. The Halloween Pumpkin Festival was a great success. 2,000 pumpkins were sold, 11,000 individual marshmallows were packed and sold at the fire pits. It was also hugely successful for catering and retail. Another success was achieving the membership targets for the year. I mentioned in the Autumn newsletter the advert that Mike Doran was able to place on the website of Reach. It led to our finding a new Membership Secretary in Keith Rookledge. We welcome him to the Friends’ committee. Margaret Friday again arranged some very interesting London visits, to the Museum of Garden History and to the Jewel House, Westminster. Our coach trips continue to be well attended and the September visit was to the Shuttleworth Collection, Old Warden and in October to Sudeley Castle.

  • Helios by Gillian Ayres
    Helios by Gillian Ayres A talk by Amanda Phillips, Learning and Access Officer at Leeds Art Gallery This is the first of a series of short talks made for the exhibition Natural Encounters by staff and volunteers working at Leeds Art Gallery. Different voices share their ideas about one single artwork on display for our online audiences to enjoy as a personal interpretation that can add to their own. I have been asked share the first, which I’ve titled… Reading ‘Helios’ by Gillian Ayres. Up close this artwork is extraordinary. The paint is so thickly applied that it comes together in wave-top crests, with different colours meeting in mark-making that touches and then falls away. The effect blends colour in the mind’s eye, and supports the work of the imagination as it makes meaning. Helios by Gillian Ayres was produced in 1990, and is understood within the naming-systems of the art world as an Abstract painting. Currently it is displayed in the gallery’s ‘Natural Encounters’ exhibition, curated from Leeds’ art collections to explore the idea of human relationships with the natural world. The painting entered into the collection in 1991, not that long after she had painted it. In the gallery’s file of correspondence and other material linked to the artwork, is a letter that makes clear two options for purchase were on the table. Reading between the lines, it would seem that a member of the then gallery team had travelled to London in the winter of 1990 to see an exhibition of the artist’s new work, at an independent gallery owned by her then dealer.

The start of the year saw the beginning of the first IWM project to be wholly funded by a grant from AHRC, following IWM’s achievement of Independent Research Organisation (IRO) status. Whose Remembrance? was a scoping study which set out to investigate levels of awareness of the experiences of the peoples of Britain’s former empire in the two world wars. Its scope and achievements are detailed in the section on ‘successful funding bids’ below. Led by the Research Department, the project – funded under the Connected Communities scheme – addressed a particularly pressing issue and produced lively and engaging workshops during the summer of 2012. The year saw continued effort on Research across IWM. Staff generated over 20 publications and gave presentations at more than 50 workshops, conferences and symposia during the year, in addition to providing advice, expertise and media appearances across a wide range of subjects.

  • To the Ends of the Earth: Art and Environment | Tate
    Research Online research publications RESEARCH PAPER To the Ends of the Earth: Art and Environment Art & Environment By Nicholas Alfrey, Stephen Daniels, Joy Sleeman 11 May 2012 Introducing the group of articles devoted to the theme of ‘Art & Environment’ in issue 17 of Tate Papers, this essay reflects on changing perceptions of the term ‘environment’ in relation to artistic practices and describes the context for a series of case studies of sites, spaces and processes that extend from the immediate locality to the most remote boundaries of knowledge and experience. The group of articles devoted to the theme of art and environment in issue 17 of Tate Papers aims to explore new research frontiers between visual art and the material environment. The papers arise from a conference held at Tate Britain in June 2010 at which a range of practitioners and scholars – artists, writers, curators, theorists, historians and geographers – presented case studies of artworks addressing specific sites, spaces, places and landscapes in a variety of media, including film, photography, painting, sculpture and installation. The conference considered relations between artistic approaches to the environment and other forms of knowledge and practice, including scientific knowledge and social activism. The papers addressed cultural questions of weather and climate, ruin and waste, dwelling and movement, boundary and journey, and reflected on the way the environment is experienced and imagined and on the place of art in the material world. Held at a time when the emergent effects of economic crisis were intersecting with a more established sense of ecological crisis, the conference offered an opportunity to rethink the relations between art and environment, which had become central to a number of art exhibitions and publications.

It is abstract painting of unmistakable accuracy.” – Unquiet Landscape (p.145 Christopher Neve) The work of British painter Ivon Hitchens (1893 – 1979) is much-loved for his highly distinctive style in which great swathes of colour sweep across the long panoramic canvases that were to define his career. He sought to express the inner harmony and rhythm of landscape, the experience, not of how things look but rather how they feel. A true pioneer of the abstracted vision of landscape, his portrayal of the English countryside surrounding his home in West Sussex would go on to form one of the key ideas of British Mod- ernism in the 20thCentury. A founding member of the Seven & Five Society, the influential group of painters and sculptors that was responsible for bringing the ideas of the European avant-garde to London in the 30s, Hitchens was progres- sive long before the evolution of his more abstracted style post-war. Early on he felt a compulsion to move away from the traditional pictorial language of art school and towards the development of a personal language.
